Shrimp In Cilantro Sauce

Shrimp In Cilantro Sauce by Robyn Savoie

Serve this lively cilantro-accented shrimp with rice to help quell the heat of the hot peppers. This recipe will make enough sauce for dipping (salsa), over eggs in the morning and dipping veggies. You can easily use thinly sliced chicken in place of the shrimp.
